It's actually kinda easy for me to make guy friends. I just start talking to them about video games in class. Easy friend. Bam.

And I don't even know how to put makeup on. So I don't. I probably wouldn't do it anyways 'cause I don't want to waste my morning.

I like having guy friends. I don't think of boys romantically, just as friends. I don't wear makeup. Wardrobe-wise I don't really have options, since school uniform says I have to wear a skirt. 

Sometimes when girls get really petty, I like being able to joke around with the guys. I'm not a sports person, but I try to participate in PE, and I do get passed to. I feel like I have their respect, a little.

I'm a 'smart girl', so I guess you could say I'm competing with the boys a bit in programming, math, everything. They ask me about homework and stuff, and I don't mind.

Overall I'd say I don't self-identify as a tomboy, but not a girly-girl either. I think it's the best of both worlds.

I am a tomgirl, maybe more on the 'girl' side.....?

I'd say I'm pretty tomboyish. I don't like make-up or dating or girl drama or any of the other things my female classmates seem to get sucked into (not all of them, but a few). I have quite a few friends who are boys. I also like a lot of things that are stereotyped as being boy things, like sports and being in the woods and math and stuff. I get that a lot of this tomboy/girlygirl thing is just about labels and stereotypes but I consider myself kind of boyish anyways.
